STOCKTON - Police used a stun gun on a man who they say carried a gun on a school campus and became combative on the Miracle Mile on Thursday afternoon.

Officers for the Stockton Unified School District Police Department confronted the man at Pine Street and Pacific Avenue about 2 p.m. after receiving a report of an armed man at the nearby adult day school.

The suspect initially complied with orders to submit but resisted when officers attempted to put on handcuffs, according to authorities. He was tased multiple times as a result, police said.

Members of multiple law enforcement agencies responded to assist with the call.

Farther north on Pacific Avenue, a San Joaquin County sheriff's deputy responding in an unmarked car collided with a motorist while racing to the scene.

No injuries were reported in the crash at Pacific and Yokuts avenues, and the undercover car had its emergency lights on, officials said.

Theresa Velazquez sat in a tow truck outside San Joaquin Delta College as her Jaguar sedan was being looked at. The woman, who was heading to a 2 p.m. class, said she heard noise sounding like sirens before the crash but didn't see anything leading up to the impact.

"I was looking but didn't see anything, so I came out to make a U-turn on Pacific, and then there was the impact,'" she said.

The Stockton Police Department is investigating the crash, said Deputy Les Garcia, a spokesman for the San Joaquin County Sheriff's Office.
